Still equating strong women to BlTCHY women?


Haha.

Just watched the pilot and the entire pilot, Ginny and Amelia were portrayed as grumpy and rude... And it was on some "you go girl!" Sorta thing.

Why are strong female leads seldom written without them being nasty?

I"m sorry but how exactly is Michonne bitchy now? You can't put her in the same boat as Olivia freaking Pope , SHe lives in a post apocalyptic world where if you don't fight and be tough YOU DIE... lol every woman on that show has to be a little tougher

What about the bitchy men? The majority of the men on this show are bitchy, grumpy, and rude. Yet they don't bother you.

Pull on your big boy pants. You can handle it.
